So what can you expect when you take a flying lesson with us?

The first thing you’ll notice is just how massively long the tarmac runway is!

This is because Biggin is home to a lot of corporate and business jet traffic, just taxiing to the runway holding point is sight to behold for aviation fans as you pass all the resident and visiting planes lined up.

Once your instructor has taken care of the take off and usually about 10 minutes into the flight you will get ask the option to take control.
This isn’t just a ‘have a go’ session, you will be following exercise number three in the PPL syllabus, which is a lesson in flying ‘straight and level’.

This is the highlight of the flight and as even seasoned flying veterans will tell you, you never forget the first time you ‘took control’.

With a wealth of local knowledge and experience, you can also be sure of a warm welcome from our friendly team!

Whether you just want a taster of what’s like to get airborne at this airport that’s steeped in history, or are making your first flying steps towards going for the licence, lessons with us are fun, informative and with great views on London thrown in too!

Lessons are available weekdays and weekends throughout the year, subject to weather conditions and availability.

Once in receipt of your voucher please book up allowing at least a month for weekend bookings.

Your voucher must be booked and used with the 9 months from purchase. Failure to attend will result in forfeiture of the voucher.

If you or your passenger feels unwell resulting in terminating the lesson early you cannot retake the lesson again.

Although time slots are allocated and you must arrive 15 mins prior to your lesson, also please be aware that lessons are subject to a number of factors which may potentially cause delay to your scheduled time.

Whilst every effort will be made to help keep you on time we ask for a degree of latitude owing to the nature of flying, air traffic delays and weather considerations.
